What is Cubemen?

Check out the new User Level gallery link above to see the amazing user levels being created!

Cubemen is a fast paced, action packed, original 3D Tower Defense game that mixes TD and RTS in the most exciting way possible! Get ready for some crazy Cubemen action!

It’s the age old struggle between Good vs Bad, Blue vs Red, Little men vs Little men. Use your own little Cubemen to defend your base from other little Cubemen that are trying to run it over. It’s the usual story, but with many very interesting twists.

Play a purely defense game in various modes on a sweet selection of levels, or go into Skirmish mode and play a new type of TD game against either the computer or another human opponent. That’s right.. Two way REAL-TIME TD against the computer or a real person!

There are no static towers, just little men! Spawn your little Cubemen with orders to get to a certain location to attack or defend. You can move your Cubemen around the board at any time or click on an enemy to target them.

It’s TD like you’ve never seen or experienced before! It’s fast. It’s hard. It’s pure chaos, and it’s coming very soon to a computer near you.

Thx for the heads up
Looking forward to it.
If the price is right, I will definitely pick this up.
I already own every tower defense games available on Steam…
but there just ain’t enough you know.
looking forward to see more tower defense games on Steam ^.^

This is a really good game reminds me a lot of multiwinia charm. I just got it on the steam sale for PC, and while I like the gameplay, the camera angles seem kinda awkward and the games end up to me being the fire person spam because they seem the most cost efficient. My favorite maps are the skirmish ones with more than one angle of attack like the coliseum, it would be awesome to see more like that. And a map editor would be very nice to play vs friends. Also on the hill I my attacking soldiers got stuck, a timer to start the next wave after like a minute might work. Keep up the good work!!

I played the Defenders of Ardania demo, which this game appears to be almost identical to. Fortunately that had a demo so I could see how restrictive, repetetive and limited it was compared to more advanced TD games like Defense Grid or Orcs Must Die. This game appears to be just more Ardania, limited tower placement, limited unit types, and a rudimentary rock-paper-scissors methodology. Endlessly firing out the same unit over and over and hoping to outclick your enemy isn’t strategy, and by restricting tower placement you effectively make every level only have one possible solution. Thanks, but no thanks.

You got all this from the video? Really? No level in Cubemen only has one solution, sorry. Your totally wrong about your assessment, but thats ok, you don’t have to buy Cubemen. Thats whats great about free choice 🙂

The online version on Woglie.com is a cut down version. 5 maps out of 50 and doesn’t allow network play against the latest version on Steam, Desura and soon to be released iOS (iPad 2+) and Mac App Store. Consider it an early demo.

help please, how do I fix or play online(local), because I host the game and my brother enters but we both hit ready but nothing happens and the escape button don’t even work, then I have to press the start
key close the game by force or by task manager and open﻿ it again, please help me.

On my country the dollar is really, REALLY high, don’t know if it will be a good choice, will you release a demo?
If there’s not demo well i will wait for Skidrow or other cracker and if i like it i buy it 😀

a wishlist for future updates/sequals:
-A map/level editor and some way to share/preview/review/download/read about/etc. IN GAME
-A few DLCs/addons for the game (preferably free)
-team/co-op play online~red team, blue team, green team, yellow team~or like capture the flag
-more steam achievements
-more different types of cubemen
-making lives for the AI spawn point in classic mode
I love the game! Keep up the good work!

Purchased this game yesterday and already I am in love with it. I would just like to go ahead and repeat a request someone else made. This really would expand the replay value if there was a level editor, or something built in to randomly generate maps. Also just purchased this for my roommate on Steam so we can now battle head to head. Love the concept! Love the game!

I compose and produce music and sound effects for animation, games, film, tv, audiobooks, and iPhone/iPad applications.

If you’re in need of original music, sound design/effects or audio editing for any of your apps, or know any other developers that are looking for such services, please let me know! You can check out my online portfolio here:

This game is really fun to pass the time.
Me and my sister kept playing for hours and hours because we always got the mortar guy first.
For us he’s very useless in the start of the game. But when we get in the heat of battle, it’s a welcome addition to our game.
The graphics are very simple i have to say, but are very detailed and nice.
The different classes are very unique from anything i’ve seen before, I thought Mike was some guy with a very powerful weapon, But the I found out he was a Medic and that really paid off.
Lazlo and Ricky are the ones me and my sister are trying to get first, As they are the most powerful in the heat of battle. This is very easy to play on an iPad 2 and very great indie title, I am hoping for more updates like more characters, a Map making system, and anything you guys can get your creative brains on to.

Thanks Carlos, I am glad you are enjoying Cubemen so much. I am hard at work on the MEGA 1.1 update that has lots of new cool stuff in it. This is a very big update, so I am not rushing it as I want it to be everything it can be. Stay tuned…

Looks great~~
Bought it on Steam last week
The only problem I had with this game is the scores…
Maybe cuz I played too much defense grid…
this scoring system gives me headaches…
and its not clear how to achieve high score.
Its would ultimately damage your game…
Without a clear scoring system… its hard to make this game competitive…
since if I have no idea how the scoring works… I might just end up finishing the game and thats it…
there would be no replayability.
though I like the overall design of your game…
I will not recommend it to my defense grid friends…

Please could you make this for the iPad 1, you would get so much more money it doesn’t matter if you just make it compatible for the iPad 1 but please could you do something about this I really want to play this game on my iPad 1.

It’s not about the money. The iPad1 is just not fast enough to run more than the basic few levels. Sorry. I am always looking at ways to improve performance, but how would you feel if you bought Cubemen for your iPad1 only to be told you can’t play 2/3 of the game? Not good hey?

Yes you are right about that but at least you get something I mean who has the money to go out and buy like a 500$ dollar iPad 2 to just get this game I mean with our economy going down it’s hard enough to get jobs to earn that kinda money if you know what I mean but it’s fine thank you for your time and I’m sorry I bothered you thank you.

Some arhivements need to be fixed: bonus freezer, bonus destroyer & bonus healer – I got them when I picked up summary 20 FR/DE/HE bonuses, but description says that there are 50 bonuses picked up, also there are twin archivements – pick up freezer/destroyer/etc that rly work if you summary pick up 50 bonuses.

Absolutely Spectacular game! it combines my favorite to types of games into one. I just bought this for me and my brother last night and we did a mayhem that lasted 58 waves. 22 of them were between the cpu and the rest were between me and him! Cant wait for the level editor and keep up the good work!

I picked up this game via steam and have to say that I really like it. The only thing bad I have to say right now is, I think the fact the ability to play a ‘skirmish’ is only via a random person is a bit of a let down. Wish there was a way to challange/invite a steam friend to a skirmish game.

I don’t know what happened, but since the update it was really impossible to multiplay this game with my friend. The cubemen remained alive even though the health was 0. These “health-zero” men couldn’t be attacked by my men but still could attack mine. Playing was impossible and not fun anymore! Please fix this! We love this game!

+! The game is rly bugged but Seon did a nice work – NEW MAPS ARE PERFECT, but there are more multip. bugs – sometimes my cubemen just don’t attack enemies but I’m still winning and n00bs are still disconnecting when they have only one life left)

Very very thanks for this wonderful game! I love it… This Game has what everybody wants: A friendly war simulation with custumize armys and funny effekts! And all 3D!!!!!
xD Its great fum to play it with Friends in a Party ^^
<3 3Sprockets!!!

Can you make zoomed victory cutscenes when lost/won? Would be nice to see “higlights” of the game like in fifa or madden 🙂
Also, can you add diffrernt music/sounds for each mode/level?
During couning points there should be esc key to skip it.
Some nice tron alike backgrounds would be nice 🙂

And here are suggestions for new cubeman characters:
– miner
– wall builder

Well, I bought the game on steam, for my mac. “Could not find steam client” EVERY time I launch it. I figured it was something to do with overloading steam server with the summer sale. I waited two weeks, same deal. The fix for windows was to run the game with administrator permissions, but I am already running it as an administrator. Is it just me?

Some ideas to make the unit placement become more of a matter, and add some optional twist to map-makers in the future.

The obstaces:
-Window-like blocks, which has the bottom and the top third, but can be shot trough the middle hole. This woud provide large cover. Trough Flint and Ricky may have some trouble shoting trough it… (To avoid theese close-mid range freaks have a huge defensive advantage, baancing out it a bit)-Low walls: Can be jumped over easily, not a big obstace to walking, but give a nice cover for your troops in tough firefights. Light cover is better than nothing, just watch out, mortar shells might be more devastating in such small place.The movement helper:-Ladders. Well, I couldn’t figure out how they would be done in the game engine, but they would allow our dear colorful boxhead soldiers to cimb more than 1 block, only in 1 side of a block, without needing to make stair-like structures in the future map-editor.And an idea for the map editor:HUGE maps will be a request very soon after map editor release I fear, and personally I would to make a huge warzone too. Just to see some BIG battles 😀
